Not A Tdm But........................
Quote:More settings that the starship enterprise. Surprised it doesn't have a warp core menu hidden in there.
 

3 power modes - Track, Sport and Road

3 anti wheelie modes, so you only bite the screen in level 3  Tongue

8 traction control levels, including cornering TC - there appears to be a gyroscope device under the fairing!

Very effective quickshifter which only works above 4000 rpm to ensure smooth changes under any throttle openings.

Launch control - think I'd prefer lunch control  :cake eating: . There's even an instruction in the manual stating that excessive revolving of the rear wheel (like chain oiling) may cause the dash to flag up a fault code because the wheels aren't rotating at the same speeds............

 

It's an absolutely incredible engine - 999 cc, Vee4 with titanium valves. Claimed 167 bhp and 103 Nm of torque. 185 kg and as nimble as a schoolie. It happily pulls from under 35 mph in top and red lines at 12500 rpm - I haven't found anywhere to open it up fully yet and not sure my neck could cope! I just had to get this before I involuntarily wee myself and dribble at the sign of food - it won't be long now................... :oldgit: I've never owned a superbike before and the nearest thing I've ridden to one was a full race Honda RC30 over 30 years ago - this will blow it into the weeds! I'd really regret if I didn't get something as manic before the motorised zimmer frame beckons. If you get the chance - get something similar just for the laffs and ear to lug grin every time you dismount.  :pimp:
